I still know very little about taking photos of star trails, I hope DPC experts in this area will give me some advice :)

I shot this in near full moon which I read was the worst time to take photos of the star trails. So why are there so many of them?

The universe is so scary, it makes me feel so small and insignificant. Just like the star dust.

And then there is a strange near horizontal line of dots, are these the new satellites of the billionaires? Who knows?

Wonderful, Margaret. Not only the star trails but the landscape, too.
